I am so disappointed in the medical field. I'm not talking about my current Neurologist....he's wonderful......but the ER doctors and nurses and some of the "specialists" who give up after one or two tests when nothing seems concrete for a diagnosis. We deserve much better.

All of the times I've been to the ER I've had to explain what MS is to numerous staff members. I've pretty much had to coach them along the way. I leave feeling like they owe me money!

As MS gains "popularity" you'd think doctors would want to become more familiar with it and some of the more common symptoms.

I hope your new Neuro visit on the 10th proves to be successful. And I hope you give that hospital a reason to be fearful of you! Not giving you an arm bracelet and then giving you the wrong blood test results.......that's worth a call to a lawyer IMO. Wonder who got your blood test results?
